BladeZone's Off World Forums

I found this page by mistake,but looking closer I saw that some one was selling a board game called Blade Runner

Link to page

Its quite a long adress but check it out. Because Ive never heard of a Blade Runner board game.

I have one of these. I?ve read that the game was only produced in prototype and was never sold commercially. Although I?ve read different guesses of the number of these originally produced, the number that seems to come up most often is 100. I?ve had the opportunity to play this game on a few occasions and it actually is a pretty compelling strategy game. Cards bearing numbers are dealt secretly to each player at the start on the game. If the total of these numbered cards are above a certain value then that person is a replicant. A player attempts to land on certain colored ?VK? board spaces in order to compel opponents to reveal the value of their cards. After a person gathers enough ?VK? readings to be certain of a player being a ?rep? they may make an accusation. Each of the players draw their high-powered, futuristic hand-guns and the one still living at the end of the fire-fight wins ... (just kidding about the fire-fight)

I shamelessly ask whether you could scan and post the manual and give a description of the contents so that we could all ?replicate? the game (make our own board, cards, etc)

Of course we would all be more than grateful, if you can?t, no problem anyway

Thanks for the info! But its quite sad that they only made a little of the board game and not more. But as MT says,if you could give us a picture of the games & cards & intructions & everything else ,it would be greatly appreciated!

Well, you can't blame us for trying

Sorry, I just now saw that someone was directing a reply toward me. Let me take a look at what is involved. Perhaps I could scan the directions and take a picture of the game board. Do you have web-space to which I could upload the images?

Can't say I do...

by the way,

thanks pal!

I scanned the directions, photographed the game board, and uploaded the images to my own webspace. Anyone who would like a link to download them send me a PM. I'll make these available for a couple of weeks. The only other information you should need to play the game is the number of the different values of VK cards within the deck:

Six cards have the value "2"
Six have "4"
Three have "5"
Six have "6"
Six have "7"
Six have "8"
Three have "9"
Three have "10"

Hey Bousley, provide me with the link please.
Thanks

Me too please

Just send me a PM and I'll send one back with the link.

I already have quite some time ago...
could there be something wrong with the PM system??

I'm sending one now too

a-ha!

my mistake, I probably didn't enter a subject in the PM the last time and it didn't get sent, just figured that out now.

Hi Nexus,

Check your PM's. The links to the boardgame scans are contained in a message to you.

Thanks Bousley! I owe you one.
